As people said, its about the Columbine shooting, a man asked Cassie if she beleived in god, if she said no he wouldnt kill her, if she said yes he would. She says yes he kills her. Then he asked that to Rachel, she says yes, he shoots her, but she doesn't die, he asked her again, she still says yes, and he shoots her again and she dies. Its about how if you really truly beleive in something that you wouldn't betray it for anything.
Love this song, love Flyleaf they Rok.

What I heard: During the Columbine shooting, Cassie, a cristian matyr, was singled out and shot under a desk in the library because she was praying to god for her life to be spared. The shooter looked under, said peekaboo and shot her. Rachel was the one who was asked to question because she was a christian maytr. When asked why she said that she was raised that way.
The point to me: whenever there is a school shooting, kinda like the one in Beslam, god always keeps the best kids and lets the other ones have another chance on earth. My Russian cousins and I still fear that it could happen to us because now Beslam is a place of suffering for us.

How come people say this song is about a girl name cassie who commits suicide. Every time they say that about this song. I tell them its about the columbine shooting they get all confused. And ask me then why is she pulling the trigger. Then I really get mad and they rub it in my face telling me that this song is about emos. If only they knew what this song was about then maybe they would forgive me.

This song is not for emos. Cassie didn't commit suicide. Her death is that of no meaning. She died because of great cause and that is because of her faith in god.
Whenever I hear this song, I say to god, "lord, how i wish you could grant me the same courage that you showered upon cassie"
How I wish I could die for someone who died for me. How I wish I could stand by my faith in the end. I'm not that courageous, but I believe god will make me one.

Ok everyone knows that flyleaf is a christan rock group. I think that the message is to stand up for your beleifs. No I never heard of cassie, but I bet cassie was a strong person. In a way she acted like jesus. When jesus stuck up for god he got killed. And now with cassie I think she was sent to earth from god as a blessing in the skies.
